Topic: Dat Transaction Confirmation Time... (Read 2071 times)
If I threw in BTC0.0001 for every transaction I made in my entire Bitcoin history, I'd be broke by now.

Total Received 4.86439465 BTC
I have quite a few addresses, you know. Maybe over 100?
And anyway, I may have received that much, but it's because I used to (stupidly) make a lot of large transactions to consolidate my dust.
And even though that total received figure is high, compare it with the final balance. The final balance is less than half a percent of the total received

Now I am kinda confused
I've had no-fee transactions under 1000 bytes take more than 30 hours to confirm. However, I just made another no-fee transaction that was 2057 bytes, and it confirmed in 3 minutes
TXID is 2d3d0b3b39480afe1eba50b63047f980c0c31e116e203eab248b86db510105dc if anybody is interested.
Anybody care to explain why?

...or you were lucky and a pool that likes free transactions

Great...
Just had another one take 39 hours

If you wan't to collect dust you will have to wait, and quite rightly so.

Ah. Why would that happen?
If I recall correctly, each peer's memory pool is cleared on exit. Therefore, as nodes go offline (system restart, daemon crash, etc.), the transaction gradually disappears from the network.Or it could be because blockchain.info is bugged. I sent a 0 fee transaction (that normally required a fee) using the NFTF fork, and it got 95%+ propagation. After 5 minutes, it dropped to 1%. It still got confirmed in ~6 hours.
Ah, okay

I HATE paying fees. Especially cause I'm this poor
And I as a miner HATE doing work for free. That's the gist of it. Is it me, or has blockchain.info's node progressing tracking completely gone wacko?
One of my transactions went to 91% node progression. A few hours later, it's down to 1%
it probably got dropped from nodes' memory poolOne of my transactions went to 91% node progression. A few hours later, it's down to 1%

Well, yeah. That's expected. But 21 hrs?
yep, deal with it.

Well, that's fine, but just know that free transactions are typically going to confirm slower than paid ones.

Meh.
I HATE paying fees. Especially cause I'm this poor
And anyway, I've done a ton of low priority transactions, with no fee, and they've been all much faster.
the minimum fee is 0.005 BTC. that's 50 cents. how can you not pay that fee?I HATE paying fees. Especially cause I'm this poor

No it's not.
I throw in .0001 usually and get quick confirmations.
That's not the minimum fee. That's the recommended fee
I'm just too poor.
